The pace you set is both a strength and a weakness. For those all-important decisions, take a little more time to think things through and assess the impact. The speed you work at can be awe inspiring, but others may not be able to match it. To avoid you doing something yourself to get it done quickly, be clear on the priorities for your team members. If something needs doing as a priority, let them know it’s fine to drop something else to get it done. This way you will achieve what you need to without always having to do it and you’re developing your team.

Avoiding conflict can be useful in certain situations but there are times when dealing with an issue head on is the only option. Compel yourself to deal with issues as soon as they arise. Take a deep breath, do not overthink it and just tackle the situation in a calm, straight forward manner. Each encounter will give you additional courage to tackle the next one.
